La Bamba Casserole

Arriba! Arriba! La Bamba is a great name for this yummy dish! It’s like a flashback to 1987, seeing the movie “La Bamba” and hearing the catchy song by Ritchie Valens. Does that bring back some good memories for you?

La Bamba is a traditional Mexican folk song from the state Veracruz and was often played during weddings where the bride and groom performed the accompanying dance.

This is a quick healthy and best of all, tasty recipe, from Cooking Light Cookbook. If you favor Mexican food, you will surely like this comfort food dish. The recipe is versatile and you could make it with the meat of your choice. It is a filling simple dish!

La Bamba Casserole will make your mouth water and then just maybe you will start dancing La Bamba!

The fact that something this cheesy and tasty looking is actually healthy, made "light" makes it even more appealing! I can enter all the ingredients on WW online, and figure out how many points this puppy would be. Thanks my dear, for something other than the standard fare most dieters have to face! Scrumptious!

Thank you for visiting my blog and for becoming a follower. I am absolutely loving the cast iron skillet. I know my grandmother had one, it was passed down to my mother, I remember her using it. I wish I knew what happened to it. Treasure your grandmother's.

Love your site, I've become a follower and I am definitely going to try the French Toast flavored with Triple Sec.

Hi Pam! Now I'm singing out loud and wishing I could make this casserole right now! I love Mexican food and flavors, so I know this would be a winner. Thank you for sharing your tasty casserole with me. I hope you had a great day...may tomorrow be even better!

"The Epicure's Lament"

On hot summer evenings, she likes to sit on their screened-in porch and have, for her supper, one cored and sliced red bell pepper still cold from the refrigerator dipped bite by bite into a jar of very hot salsa, washed down with a large, icy dry martini, and then, for dessert, a lightly boiled and salted ear of corn. - Kate Christensen

The Nightingale”

“From the picnic basket, she withdrew a crusty baguette, a large wedge of rich, double-cream cheese, two apples, and some slices of paper-thin Bayonne ham, and a bottle of Bollinger ’36.” - Kristin Hannah

"Five Go Off in a Caravan"

“Soon they were all sitting on the rocky ledge, which was still warm, watching the sun go down into the lake. It was the most beautiful evening, with the lake as blue as a cornflower and the sky flecked with rosy clouds. They held their hard-boiled eggs in one hand and a piece of bread and butter in the other, munching happily. There was a dish of salt for everyone to dip his egg into. ‘I don’t know why, but the meals we have on picnics always taste so much nicer than the ones we have indoors,’ said George.” - Enid Blyton
